Trying Different Foods at Shelter Hall

Food halls are a really fun way to try a bunch of different food or to eat a bunch of food with different people. When we are in Brighton for our yearly work trip, there is often an event at Shelter Hall, which has everyone meeting up, taking over the hall, and ordering some tasty food. Shelter Hall is a food hall full of different eateries, with tables in the middle. It’s a bit of a share the area experience as the tables are long and everyone sits together. Food is brought over to your table from the different venues, so you need to keep an ear out, but there is so much variety! Everything is ordered through an app and paid through the app, so you don’t need to get up or look at different menus.

EUGY 3D Puzzles – Creating 3D Animals and Dinosaurs

[Ad- gifted product] We have previously, though many years ago, tried out the EUGY 3D Puzzle for Meerkats, but Robin was much younger and not into puzzles, so it was something Amelia put together. When we were gifted two of the EUGY 3D Puzzles, Robin was excited for her chance to build them and have the little models in her own room. These 3D puzzles are very easy to set up and put together, offering a fantastic rainy day activity, which is often needed in the autumn time. EUGY 3D Puzzles have a large number of animals, dinosaurs, mythical creatures and sea life for you to put together, all following the same sort of format. Each one has their own number as well, which encourages collecting them all!

Sherlock Holmes and the Hunt for Moriarty at The Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch

[Ad- gifted experience] Sherlock Holmes is an iconic, household name, and as such there is a lot to live up to! We went to see Sherlock Holmes and the Hunt for Moriarty at the Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch. This performance had a lot of characters played by medium sized cast, with many switching characters throughout the show. Watson was both the character and the narrator, needing to switch seamlessly between the role. There were a bunch of costumes used to subtly change the characters as well, so that side characters were all different. These costume changes were quick, between moments, which was very impressive!

Turn Your Mudroom Into the Perfect Pet Care Hub

Your mudroom already handles the chaos of daily comings and goings – muddy boots, wet coats, and everything else that needs sorting before entering your main living space. But if you share your home with furry friends, this hardworking area can become something even more useful: a dedicated pet room that keeps your animals happy and your house organized.

Creating a pet-focused mudroom makes daily routines smoother, as everything your pets need lives in one accessible spot, and caring for them becomes less of a chore. Plus, you’ll love how much cleaner your main living areas stay when all of your pet care items stay in this one zone.

The Best Sleepwear Sets for Family Travel

Traveling as a family is exciting—new places to see, foods to try, and memories to make. But when bedtime rolls around in a hotel room, cabin, or Airbnb, things can get… interesting.
